Wow!! What a great freakin' time. this is the girl in the Boston cap... how do I get a hook up with the chick in the red Bikini? Just kidding, I know the deal... Good job Chad, I think we were all waiting for some pics, now we got our fix. You guys will have all of my pics and video tomorrow. See ya!!

Maybe if I am good you guys will let me come next year. Wish you would of had room for me to go I would of loved to go. Looks like you guys had a killer time. Are we having a staple removal bbq? Well you and Chad have paided your dues to ride the mudhole now.

Squid I'm going to kick your little a**. You know we had room. Everyone had a bed and nobody slept outside except tanner because he wanted to. Don't say you wanted to go because it was obvious you didn't. We made the invite list smaller this year just so people wouldn't complain and now you pull this. Squid, your frustrate me. Your lease is over on the Watson. Your going to have to make it up mr pro form or you don't get an invite next year. ;)

Mad Child- That was my VLX, it was kickin that weekend as long as we had a ton of people in it.

Mac- yeah we seen those guys I think it was Saturday morning. They looked like they would wear you the hell out though. They kept flying out of em and skipping across the lake. It was some funny stuff.

I am still getting distracted by thoughts of the trip!!!So glad that we were able to make it this year...already countin' down for next year. I am definately bringing more bloody mary mix after those party nights!

Gene it doesn't take much. Get a few people to commit just so you can come up with some cash for the down payment on the boat and then get everyone else to pay when the balance is due. The Shasta trip is one of the highlights of our year. We book next years trip the day we leave the current trip. Usually one person puts the deposit down and then we pay that person back as the money starts coming in from other participants. The hardest part is getting everyone to mesh.

We did some serious meshing this year. At points in time it was hard to tell were someone began and another person ended. Half the crew this year that went has been on the other trips but the other half was all new. Really think about who will get along with who and eval everyones personality other wise it could be a disaster.

So do I get to kiss you on your birthday Daniell? Paul said I could as long as he watched. lol. Who all is going to be at the party? Has anyone gotten a hold of Michelle and Jerry.

Paul I heard we missed out on the dancer at your neighbors house Saturday night. I was told we should have ambused the party about 10 because that was when the fun started.lol.

Hey guys a small tip for you. Most rental places have seasonal prices. During the summer the prices are insane. If you can sacrifice on the weather a little bit, it can be a lot cheaper. For instance, we always rent the first weekend of October, that's officially their off-season time. The nice thing about CA and Shasta is that it's still in the 80's. It can get a little chilly in the morning and at night, but it's worth it when you consider how much cash it saves.

Kim---we will just see how the night goes--haha. i didn't even think about gerry & michelle--does anyone know if they are going to be in town or close too it. paul or squid, if you can send them an email

Julia-hadn't thought of a prize, i am sure that we could come up with something though.
